    Finally we're gonna have this funny car. It's pretty cheap too. I thought I'll give you heads up before your wifes/gf/so will find out about it... :)

    I'd love to have one of those! Have you ever seen the crash tests? Those things are rock solid!

    i'm happy with my mini. it's small enough and i don't feel like i could die any second. but it is nice to know that there will at least be 1 car that my car would destroy in a crash.

    I can imagine it going across the Tappenzee or GWB during a wind gust. It flops over on it's side like Guido & Luigi in "Cars".

    And I'd say more of a pregnant roller skate. Steel wheels type.

    They might be good for filling NYC pot holes.

    Wait, someone would feel safe driving one of these things... in Manhattan? Have you seen NY cabbies?

    I'd rather drive one to a Hummer convention.

    ive been driving around smart cars for years here in NJ. There is no way I would take one on the highway. They work great around town, but too risky on the highway with soccer moms in hummers drinking starbucks. Im probably going to pick one up though:)
